Bledsoe Corp

Bledsoe Corp, a minority-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Oaklandon, Indiana, operates as a commercial off-the-shelf products supplier to federal agencies as a prime contractor, competing full-and-open across the GSA and Department of Defense supply chains without set-aside restriction. The company is a self-certified small disadvantaged business structured as a for-profit corporate entity.

Bledsoe Corp's footprint is dominated by supply-chain logistics work through two high-velocity parent vehicles. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support indefinite delivery contract SP47W121D0012 anchors 1,023 task orders worth $893 thousand in combined potential value, representing 74% of all prime awards. The company also holds 46 task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule worth $279 thousand. These vehicles funnel a steady stream of small-dollar purchase orders and delivery orders for computer hardware, office equipment, safety gear, operational supplies, and specialized maritime equipment—monitors, laptops, network components, chairs, desks, protective equipment, anchors, dock lines, batteries, tools, and incidental commercial consumables. Representative recent work includes a $21.3 million delivery order from the Defense Health Agency for computer monitors (September 2025), a $29 thousand purchase order from the U.S. Embassy Nairobi for USB monitors (July 2026), a $21 thousand delivery order from Air Force Space Command for keyboard-video-mouse switches at Vandenberg Space Force Base (September 2025), and a $5.3 thousand camera lens purchase order from GSA Federal Acquisition Service (December 2025). Bledsoe also holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Naval Air Warfare Center valued at $9 million running through December 2029, which allows the Navy to issue task orders for commercial products and services supporting naval shipbuilding and maintenance.

Customer concentration is extreme and tilted toward logistics rather than mission-critical work. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support accounts for 76% of awards (1,052 of 1,378) and $3.9 million of potential value across the footprint. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service places 283 orders worth $843 thousand. The Naval Air Warfare Center's single $9 million BPA agreement dominates the potential-value ranking despite representing just one award, while the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command contributes five awards worth $1 million. This customer concentration reflects Bledsoe's operational posture: rapid fulfillment of high-volume, low-to-moderate-dollar supply orders through standing vehicles rather than competitive pursuit of large prime contracts or complex service work.

Activity data shows sharp volatility tied to vehicle cycling. The company recorded 94 awards in 2022, 20 in 2023, 13 in 2024, then spiked to 293 in 2025 before dropping to 2 in 2026. This pattern is consistent with IDC task-order issuance cycles on the DLA Troop Support vehicle rather than organic growth. Combined potential value across all 1,378 prime awards totals $15.1 million, with only $1.6 million (11%) obligated to date. The source data spans from September 2020 forward; the most recent award is dated August 2026. Bledsoe operates exclusively as a prime contractor—zero sub-awards appear in the footprint.

Bledsoe's capability portfolio is narrow and transactional. The company does not perform engineering, integration, program management, or sustainment services. It sources, inventories, and ships commodity products—primarily commercial off-the-shelf hardware and supplies—in response to purchase orders and delivery orders. The NAICS concentration underscores this: 1,049 awards fall under "All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing" (the DLA catch-all for resellers), and 323 under "Electronic Computer Manufacturing." PSC codes show 1,050 awards in "Hardware, Commercial," and 286 in compute-infrastructure categories. Bledsoe operates through standing GSA and DLA catalogs rather than custom solutions.

The Naval Air Warfare Center BPA represents the highest-value vehicle position, but it functions as a supply-replenishment mechanism rather than a strategic partnership. The agreement's $9 million ceiling and five-year term (through December 2029) position Bledsoe as a convenience vendor for routine naval logistics—equipment refresh, facility maintenance, and consumable replenishment—rather than a mission-critical systems provider. There are no subcontractors in Bledsoe's award history; the company does not appear to serve as a prime with significant subs, nor does it subcontract to larger primes.
